The Microsoft Windows 7 Upgrade Program Rev. 3.0
http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.a...tno=609&pgno=1

"Windows Vista PCs preinstalled with qualifying software must be
purchased by end users between these dates:

June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010

(Open to change, and depends on the actual release to market date of
Windows 7)

OEMs may choose to offer a shorter program period within the allowed
date range."

I think some here misunderstood your question at first but it looks like
you got the right answer, however, can I add a comment?

W7 will be able to run XP mode much better than using a virtual machine
in the conventional way but ONLY if the Processor is capable, so it that
is something you might want in the future look around and make sure the
sales person is not just selling you a machine that will run VMWare or
something.
